With the 2023.12.0 release of Home Assistant, there are even more dimming related attributes that don’t do anything, and the fan still shows up as a dimmer.
This is very frustrating because all sorts of strange things happen, like if you had an automation that turns on a whole room of lights, it would also turn the fan on to full blast. So like the sun goes down and all of your papers blow away.
Voice integrations for turn on a fan don’t work, because it’s a dimmer.
There’s a lot of silly workarounds like using a custom quirk or using the “change type of a switch” helper or putting the fans in a different area so they I don’t have to rewrite my lighting automations, but I would really love it if the fan was a fan.
I’m considering writing a custom zha quirk that drops all dimming stuff and exposes a three speed fan, but I think it’d be way better if the official one showed up correctly.
